Hello. I've just installed 6.0/AMD64 on an Asus A8V, which features a vr interface. I'm getting tons of "vr0: rx packet lost" kernel messages as soon as I start transfering some files on my LAN. Needless to say, network performance is VERY poor (ranging from 100KB/s to 1MB/s *). I've looked in the archives and in bug reports and I've seen someone has reported this too, but found no solutions. Someone says that the same board connected to a different switch behaves correctly. I can only add that an identical system running 5.4/i386 does not show this problem. So, getting to the questions: _ is this a known problem? _ was it introduced in 6.0? (And possibly would it be fixed in 6.1?) _ is it an AMD64 only issue? If so, would I be better of starting from scratch with i386? _ any insight on which switches should work, which shouldn't and why? _ any other info is welcome. *) Tests indicate ~1MB/s with a generic kernel and 100-150kB/s with my custom one, which introduces ipfw). I haven't tested thoroughly, however, so don't take this figures seriously. bye & Thanks av.
